Tender Quality Score

This tender, currently in preliminary market engagement, provides a clear project description and invites market input, but lacks specific requirements and evaluation criteria for the formal procurement phase.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender is in a planning/preliminary market engagement phase, which explains the absence of a defined procedure type. CPV codes are appropriately assigned, and there are no disputes. The timeline for this preliminary stage is reasonable. However, the lack of a defined procedure type is a future concern for formal compliance.

Procedure type is not defined (Type: None, Procedure: None)
Clarity80/100

The project description and the purpose of the preliminary market engagement are clear. It is explicitly stated that detailed requirements and evaluation criteria will be provided in the formal tender, which is clear for this stage. However, the absence of these details for the actual procurement means future clarity is needed.

Specific eligibility, technical, financial requirements, and evaluation criteria are not yet defined for the formal tender
Completeness70/100

Basic information such as title, organization, reference, estimated value, duration, and location (NUTS code) is complete. Documents are attached. However, critical details for the actual procurement, including specific requirements and evaluation criteria, are explicitly stated as missing at this preliminary stage.

Specific eligibility, technical, financial requirements, and evaluation criteria are not yet defined
Fairness85/100

The preliminary market engagement actively invites input, especially from SMEs, which promotes fairness and broad participation. Document access is provided, and the estimated value is disclosed. However, the lack of e-submission and unspecified evaluation criteria for the formal tender could impact future fairness.

No e-submission support
Evaluation criteria are not yet specified
Practicality65/100

The contract start date and duration are clearly specified. However, the absence of e-submission support is a significant practical drawback for potential bidders and modern procurement practices. Document URLs are not explicitly provided, though documents are listed.

No e-submission support
Data Consistency90/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical and consistent. There are no disputes or suspensions. The 'Value Classified: Yes' alongside an explicitly stated estimated value is a minor inconsistency, as are the empty 'Type' and 'Procedure' fields.

'Value Classified: Yes' contradicts the disclosed estimated value
'Type' and 'Procedure' fields are empty
Sustainability50/100

There is no explicit mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus within the provided tender information. The tender is also not indicated as EU funded, which often correlates with higher sustainability standards.

No explicit green procurement criteria
No explicit social criteria
